Re: Let's see your homemade crafts!
That is really cool. That last knife picture...is the sheath made out of the same material that you made the handle with?

Re: Let's see your homemade crafts!
That's nice workmanship.
Nowhere as nice but, they made the wife happy. A mix of custom black walnut kitchen spoons. The top one isn't symmetrical on purpose. The different radius on the bottom match the corner radius of her favorite sauce pans. The bottom one is several years older and accidentally made a trip through the dishwasher once.

Re: Let's see your homemade crafts!
For today's post it's not so much a craft as the repair of one of my mother's chairs. The apartment she lived in had a water leak in the ceiling and in fell in and broke the arm. In addition I discovered the broken parts in the seat base.
I don't think the falling sheet rock did that damage rather just being 70 plus years old was the issue. No matter how it was broken I need to make a replacement piece and get some1/8" plywood to make it right again.

Re: Let's see your homemade crafts!
I finally finished repairing the chair. Unfortunately I missed getting it ready for mother's day due breaking a bone in my foot.
![]() I didn't get a good photo of the piece I made to replace the broke one in seat. Mostly operator error in taking the pictures. And ready to load up and deliver to mom.

Re: Let's see your homemade crafts!
Started with a blank 23' cargo trailer, insulated everything and installed windows. The bed is raised to make room for the utilities: solar charger, inverter, water tanks, batteries ect. The bed hinges to make room for toys. Then we have a bathroom and cupboards in the V. We have a mini fridge, air conditioner, generator. Everything is set up to be self sufficient when we do our long road trips with my diesel '52 GMC doing the pulling. Trailer weighs 5000lb loaded for camping.
